This liner difference had us thinking!!!!!

Your post screams at me a whole host of issues.

There are so many issues and problems + bad practices / horrible things that are being done that you are jumbling up all together, that I do not even know where to start.

It would take an entire book to explain all the things I see wrong,. missed, and incorrect with what you are describing, seriously.


== What I said above.. seems that you, and the community you are in there are creating all of your problems yourselves over there...

one example... like WHY THE H3ELL did you have to remove the whole engine to have it counter-bored?... that isn't right at all, as there is a tool that can be used right inside the engine bay of the vehicle to do all of that. Most places around here charge about $100 per hole to come to your shop and counter-bore one with this tool if someone does not want to buy one.

ISX/cummins mid-stop counter-bore tool...






and...





Since you are in newZealand, instead of calling me on the phone .. I would suggest that you install the 'mumble' app on your phone (or better yet, a laptop with a microphone) and get on my mumble server to discuss it all.

Once mumble is installed, connect to server address 'mumble.rawze.com'. it is not listed publicly on there, you have to type it in + give your user name.

As far as what time of day/night to catch me on there ... I am usually around in the afternoon, evenings, and nights till about midnight or so on there, my local time. To see what time it is here where I live.. it is shown at the top of the forum as 'server time'.
